Apr 22, 2012 - If any of you think that this man is inspiring, let me ask you this. Would you help restart a campaign to bring this man back as conductor of the NEC Youth Philharmonic Orchestra. For me, playing under Zander was some of the best times in my life. If he is this inspiring on a video, imagine what he must be like in rehearsal and in concert with an orchestra. Perhaps you could write a letter to NEC pressure them to rescind their firing, which, due to recent information, is unjustified.
